Canterbury Cathedral Plate One of 11 recorded views from the series titled Foliage and Scroll Border Series and marked Clews. In 597 AD St Augustine arrived in Britain as a missionary, sent by Pope Gregory the Great. He was given a church in Canterbury, on the site of a former Roman Temple, by King Ethelread, whose wife was a Christian. When,later,he was consecrated the first Archbishop of Canterbury this became his ‘seat’ (Latin ‘cathedra’) and his successors have held the same post ever since, the current Archbishop being the 104th. As the senior cleric of the church in England, the Archbishops were sometimes in conflict with the King, none less than Archbishop Thomas a Becket who, in 1170, was murdered in the cathedral by knights of King Henry II (The topic of Christopher Fry’s play ‘Murder in the Cathedral’). St Thomas was canonised by the Pope in 1173 and his tomb in the cathedral became a place of pilgrimage (“…to Caunterbury they wende,the hooly blisful martir for to seke, that hem hath holpen, when that they were seeke.” Prologue to ‘Canterbury Tales’ by Geoffrey Chaucer, 1375). Much of the present building dates from c.1170 with additions to the quire completed in 1184 and the nave in 1405. 5 Circa 1825. Incised Clews mark to back.
